“Despite being considerably overweight himself, my husband has been making pointed comments about my weight for some time (I have a BMI of 20). Am I being unreasonable to be pissed off?” she continued in the heated post, which has sense racked up thousands of passionate comments.

I’d be happy if someone paid for my gym membership.

Like getting a bottle of mouthwash for Christmas:

Scope. Has anyone here ever received a bottle of Scope? Has anyone here ever sent anyone a bottle of Scope? Just seems like such a cruel thing. Often think of the borderline psychotic. Just needs one more thing to go wrong, y’know. Going down to the mailbox.. “Hmm..what’s this? Scope? Scope! AHH! WAH! AHHHHHHHGH!” Up on the roof with a Magnum- BMMM! Nine dead and they blame Marine training. Uh, bad breath, yeah. “Anyone can have bad breath, Marge, but you can knock a buzzard off a s___wagon!” - George Carlin

Woman #1: “I was given a gym membership. Do I have a right to be angry?”
Woman #2: “Girl, you don’t need a reason! Just be angry! I’m sure that mofo deserves it! Smash the patriarchy, baby!”

I’d go to the gym if it had a pool.
Otherwise I’d just rather go to the pool.

Not enough info. No pics, no reason given for not having time for the gym, no indication if her BMI of 20 was 17 a few years ago, their ages etc etc

I'm taking the side of the wife on this one.

The neanderthal husband should have gotten her a vacuum cleaner instead.

Right. Where is the really relevant information, such as his income and her income? His assets and her assets. Any previous marriages? Their ages are also important, as you mention.

Try sending a woman paint roller so she can apply her face faster.

If you have to give a gift to children whose parents you do not like even though you like the kids, a toy trumpet or or drum set is a good gift.

If you like neither the kids or the parents, a trampoline.
